The experiment Of taking the jacket
of an eight-inch gun was successfully
performed at the Washington navy yard
few days ago. Such thing was never
required and never attempted in this
soutry before. Large steel guns are not
made in one solid piece now as they for.
merly were. The ground work of .
cannon is one long tube, of not more
than one.half the external diameter that
the finished cannon will have. This
tube is strengthened by jackets and
hoops which fit the tube SO closely that
the joints are frmer than solid castings
would be. These Jackets are simply
other tubes Of larger bore pressed down
over the inner tube. They are put on
red hot, and in the cooling shrink 10
tightly ~ to be equal to solid piece Of
metal.

A we'll at Yakutsk, in Siberia, has
been . standing puzzle to scientists for
many years. 1t was begun in 1928. but
given up at thirty feet because it was
still in frozen earth. Then the Russian
Academy Of Sciences continued for some
months the work Of deepening the well,
but stopped when it reached to the OF.
tent Of some 3s2 feet. the ground was
still frozen ~ hard ~ rock. In 1874
the academy had the temperature of the
excavation carefully taken at various
depths, and from the data thus obtained
the ground was estimated TO be frozen to
the depth Of 6l2 feet. Al external cold
could not freeze the earth to such
depth, even in Siberia, geologists have
concluded that the well has penetrated .

Speak gently to the erring one.
Do not too rudely crush.
The wav'ring effort made by hope
Ere it has time to blush
Let kind words cause a smile to deck
The cheek-love light the eve.
That peace and joy may rise to life
And bloom, no more to die.
Speak gently to the dropping hear
Borne down by pain and care.
Nor ever strive to add one pang
To grief and sorrow there.
Sweet word of love oft warns the hoar4
Drives dark, sad clouds away,
Making ourmental night as far
AS is the summer day.
Speak gently to our loved ones,
Low not an angry word
Drive back one thought OF love from ne
So love us their regard;
They happy, we are happy too,
Their every bliss is ours.
Made brighter by loves bea1ning smile
Than earth's bright, blushing flowers
Speak gently to the trusting one,
Keep bright each link OF love,
Let confidence forever bind
Lead souls to heaven above;
Then, gently speak to every one.
Let kindness fill each heart.
Souls lingering music in each tone
They'll sorrow when we part.
